calliope had reached the ripe age of ten when tragedy had struck her family and pack.

her pack, the ipomoea pack were celebrating the anniversary of their existence. Having their annual campfire and barbeque.

the ipomoea pack were unknown to other shapeshifter packs and they enjoyed it because they were quite different.

not only were they shapeshifters, but they also had gifts that were normally given to pale, bloodsucking vampires.

running through the nearby fields, calliope filled the air with her soft giggles as she chased after some stray puppies.

as she slowed down to catch her breath, calliope let out her final giggle before the travelling smell of smoke filled her nostrils.

her head lifted, following where the scent came from before her eyes widened in fear.

it was coming from her packs campsite.

calliope jumped to her feet and took off in a sprint, running as fast as her little feet could.

and when she had finally arrive at the campsite, her eyes covered over in fear.

there were pack members laid out on the ground human form, blood dripping from their crimson stained lips. while some were laid out in their fox and wolf forms, necks seeming broken.

"nana! pietro!" calliope called out for her family while frantically searching the campsite.

her bare feet were getting scratched up and dirtied. But they dug into the dirt suddenly, stopping her from moving when her eyes caught sight of a long black coat. calliope knew that it did not belong to any of her pack members which meant...

"vampires" calliope breathed out. one of the figures turned, its blood red eyes staring at her blue-grey ones.

"calliope!" An older male of the pack spotted the panicked girl and rushed over to her.

"law! where is my nana, where is my brother?" she cried and the man  hushed her as he ran through the flames with calliope's hand in his.

"your brother is safe" he assured her. they were now running through the forest and getting further from the blazing heat.

"what is going on-" calliope's words were cut out when two figures sped past her in a blur.

law pounced into action, his clothes ripping as he transformed into his large white wolf form.

"law!" calliope whimpered and law took one last glance to the girl before running off, two blurs chasing after him.

that was the last time she saw him.

the scared little girl wrapped her arms around her knees and hid in the shadow of a large tree.

and when the screams and suffocating smell of smoke had finally subdued, only then did calliope raise her head and let out the breath she held.

carefully, calliope left the shadow and as she took a look at her surrounding, she sprinted off to where her pack once was.

a little gasp left her lips as she saw nothing but blood and ash.

there was nothing left.
no one but her.

her feet shuffled through the dirt as her eyes glossed over.

"pietro? nana? someone" her voice came out hoarse. she was calling out for people she knew wouldn't answer.

but in her little mind, she had hope that maybe someone would answer back and take her away.

there was nothing left for her here and calliope knew that there was a chance of those vampires still being in the area.

so she turned and ran.

running further and further away, knowing that from now on, she was on her own.
